Abstract
CaCo2O4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmmn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CaO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six equivalent CoO6 octahedra and edges with six CoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–17°. There are two shorter (2.33 Å) and four longer (2.40 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.35 Å) and four longer (2.40 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Co3+ sites. In the first Co3+ site, Co3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent CaO6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with six CoO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CaO6 pentagonal pyramid. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.11 Å. In the second Co3+ site, Co3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share edges with six CoO6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent CaO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.08more »
